1.Body checkup of the elderly organized by the Caritas

This activity was decided to organize just as the years before. However, the details would be discussed after a notification letter had been

received from the Caritas in October to November.

This activity is a campaign which aims at caring for the elderly people who live alone. It was suggested that three areas would be involved in from October to December:)making of cards for festivals (23/10 - 30/11))cleansing of the homes of elderly (30/12 a.m.))organizing activities of private elderly home (23/12 p.m.)A training session for general volunteers (11/11 p.m.) and an additional training program for organizing activities in elderly home would also be applied..

This would be held during the Christmas Gathering. Followed by the success in the previous year, more experienced was gained and it was believed that this year it would be more successfully organized. For example, class visits could be held before the Christmas Gathering so that more students could support this .We hope that more donations might be received in this year.All the donations will be used for charity purpose.
